Isn't Magic Fun?

Two days, two captions, now that's more like it. This was a lot of fun to write as I love rhyming couplets. I'm pretty sure that comes from the heavy diet of Dr. Seuss I grew up with. Anyway, I figured it was time to have a little fun with my writing which inspired this cute little transformation poem. The last line still bugs me as I couldn't get the right number of syllables so the beat doesn't match, but whatever.
Enjoy.

Corporate Punishment

This was a request for Amber Smithe, who sent me the story outline and a massive photo set she wanted me to use images from. I changed the story around a bit as I decided to tell the whole thing through dialog, which also had the added effect of leading me to write the most awkward transformation description I've ever had in a caption. But as a whole I like how it turned out, and I hope Amber does too.
On a less pleasant note, I'm going to be taking some time off from captioning. I know what some of you are thinking "You're updating once every two weeks as it is, how much more time off do you need?"
To that I say...um...fair point. But here's my current creative process:
My current captions take me about 2 hours to make when you put everything together (image, background, story, formatting). But I usually only have about an hour of free time for captioning. So what usually happens is I end up with a lot of half formed ideas that end up on my to do list. Then when I do get time to revisit the ideas, I want to do something really good as I haven't posted in a while which kills my motivation to do most of the stuff I put on the list.
So I'm taking some time off where I won't look at anything captioning related. Hopefully it won't be much longer than the breaks between my updates are now, and I'll come back with some fresh ideas and the energy to do them. Some more free time would help too, but that doesn't see too likely.
Anyway, see you all again in a bit.

How Lucky You Are

Nothing too special with today's update. I've had this image in my "To Caption" folder for a long time and I finally decided it was time to just get it done. It's nothing that hasn't been done many times before by myself and plenty of others, but I still think it turned out okay.
I'm going to try to turn out at least one new caption a week now that I'm back. It's a bit of a step down from my ideal of three updates every week, but I'm still trying to find a balance between sticking to a schedule and actually finding the time to create new material.

Angel in the Night

Happy weekend everyone. I had planned on using my down time today to find some new images and then create a new caption tomorrow, but this image just wouldn't wait. The story formed so quickly that I didn't want to risk losing it so I quit my search and went right into captioning. Unfortunately the speed with which I created the story was not present in the formatting process as well. I went through a ton of backgrounds before finding one I liked, and then it took me a longer than it should have to work it into my standard layout without the test becoming illegible. Needless to say the whole process just reminded me of why I'm primarily a writer, and not a designer.
Speaking of design, I've been considering including my titles in the captions themselves. Under my current system all my captions are labeled by their "production code" of C# while they're being made (which explains the odd names of the files I upload to the blog). I don't come up with a title until I'm making the actual blog post. But for today's caption the title came as I was writing it. I briefly messed around with including it before deciding I had spent enough time on this caption already and just went ahead without. But the whole process had me wondering, do you all want to see titles included in the actual caption? Or do you like the way they're formatted now?

Fast Learner

As promised, here's something a little more...risque. I'm still on the fence about titles, but then again I'm not the best at coming up with new layouts, as anyone can quickly tell by the fact that I only use two, depending on the image orientation. I'll keep playing around with them and hopefully I'll find something that works soon enough. Enjoy what's left of the weekend.

Mornings with Kylie

I'm still playing around with the idea of adding titles. I haven't found a way that I like yet, but don't be surprised if you see them start to show up here and there.
I haven't done a Kylie caption in a while, so I decided it was time for her to reappear and make my life a little more interesting once again. Not my best work, but I had a lot of fun writing it as I get write dialog and be sarcastic, which just happen to be two of my favorite activities.
For those of you who are new and unfamiliar with this little universe of mine, all you need to catch up can be found here. You can also click on the Kylie tag to see what other shenanigans the two of us get up to.

Melt

My first caption with the title in the image. I'm fairly happy with how the caption ended up looking, the story is nothing special though. It's funny, I actually meant for this to be one of my standard forced lesbian taunting captions but I just couldn't make it happen. The past couple captions have been relatively clean (at least for my standards anyway) as I haven't been in a good smut writing mood in a while. I'll try to dirty things up a bit in the next update as I know that's what most of you come here looking for in the first place.

Fairy Tale Ending

Fair warning, this is not a typical tg caption. For lack of a better term, I'm calling it writer porn. I didn't feel like creating the usual kind of caption today, but I still felt like writing. So I decided to play around with the idea of a character who has undergone a transformation, and is now realizing it wasn't the quick fix she was looking for. Actually, if it wasn't for the context of this blog, this wouldn't be a tg caption at all, as there is no mention of the gender change in the story. But seeing as we all know why we're here, I figured the transformation was implied enough. Anyway, thanks for putting up with my self-indulgence once again.

Just Ask

I've been in a bit of a rut these past couple of weeks. I'm still putting out new captions, but I haven't really loved any of them. I just sort of feel like I'm spinning my wheels. So I'm taking a tip from my newest caption and asking for what I want. If you've got a few minutes check out the new page I just added the explains what my current situation is and how I think it can be fixed. I'd really appreciate it.
Anyway, here's a new caption for your viewing pleasure.

Oh So Pretty

Hey there everyone, I've got some good news for all of you. I'm not dead! Yay!
I just decided to take a break from the tg community for a while to try to clear my head. But now I'm back, and hopefully better than ever.
To everyone who gave me feedback on my last post and on the new page I created, thank you. No seriously, thank you. There were a lot of great suggestions on new topics to explore and things to consider and you all gave me a lot to think about. I can't tell you how much I appreciate it.
So with some new ideas, a nice stack of new images, and a clear head, let's see if I can pull off a string of new captions for all of you lovely readers. Sound good to you? Because it sounds fantastic to me.

Look with Your Hands

Here's a quickie a pulled together with a little time I found this afternoon. There's really no reason for it to be two panels, but I really liked both of these pictures so I decided to stretch the story a bit and use a larger font to justify using both. Again, I'm just playing around with some different points of view than I normally use in an effort to keep things somewhat original. I can't say I love this one, but at least I don't feel like I've told this story twenty times before.

Panty Punishment

What is this, three new captions on three consecutive days? And this is my fourth new caption this week? It's almost like I'm turning out new content on a consistent basis.
This is just another quickie that I'm using to play around with new ideas and new perspectives. Again, it's nothing fancy or really erotic, but hopefully stuff like this will keep the creative juices flowing so when I do get a good idea I don't freeze up with a case of writer's block again.

Candy Cane

Here's the second request I did for Candy. Just something fun and slutty, with a hint of bimbo thrown in for good measure. After taking a break from taunting captions it was fun to revisit that tone again. I'm going to try to put together a slightly longer caption in the near future, probably around three panels as it's been over two months since I've done a caption longer than two. Now I just have to find the time to get it done.

Submission to Beauty

It's always a good day when I make a caption with the always lovely Faye Reagan. So I was happy to find the time this afternoon to make the longer cap I mentioned. As far as three panel stories go this one is still pretty short, but it was nice to do something with a little more story than my usual singles. I had some issues writing this one as I felt like it kept coming across as being an almost nonsensical ramble. I think I was just trying to go in too many different directions at the same time. I still feel the final product is a little disjointed, but it's a lot better than where it was after the first draft or two.

Just...Slipped

This was a fun caption to write as I got to play around with both the mental and physical aspects of a forced transformation, and how the two can play off of each other. I would have liked to have had a third panel as the text is a little on the small side, but I didn't have another image that worked. All things considered though, I'm pretty happy with the way this one turned out.
